The Chicago Cubs evened their weekend series against the Red Sox on Saturday, and two former Boston pitchers were big reasons why.

John Lackey didn’t have the greatest of starts — six innings pitched with eight hits and four earned runs — but he did just enough to propel the Cubs to a 7-4 win. Then Koji Uehara came on and pitched a 1-2-3 seventh inning.
